    There’s a saying I want to make famous: “One man’s freedom ends where another’s begins.” Your freedom not to take a vaccine only lasts as long as it does not affect your neighbor’s rights to live and breathe.

            The part that this 2+ year old study doesn’t take into consideration Omicron vaccinations. You’ve been vaccinated against Omicron, like a normal, sane person, haven’t you? At the time this was written, they were only using original strain vaccinations. Where I am, in the present, you can’t even get those any more, they’re so far behind.

            Or, are you an idiot, and basing decisions off of out of date papers? Because it seems like you might be.

            I bet you don’t even understand how flu vaccines change.

        If you don’t understand virology you could just say that instead of being extremely wrong

            This is literally not understanding virology again

            I’m not gonna tell you to take a college course or anything, they literally teach this stuff in first grade

                Literally expecting vaccines to be 100% effective at preventing the disease is the most wishful thinking anyone has ever had about a medical anything ever

                A vaccine is not going to prevent it 100% of the time, and constant or frequent exposure to the virus in question will inevitably lead to infection

                    Reducing the likelihood of infection will reduce the chances of people getting infected with it, people spreading it, and people getting re-infected with it

                    It’s why polio disappeared everywhere that was vaccinated for it
